Sketch of Judge Rea,

MINNEAPoLIs, Sept 3O.-The news of the
election of Judge p. Rea, of Minneapolis,

Kansas City 10, OMAHA 9.

The Omaha base ball club for 1857 Is dead,
and in its dying throes yesterday afternoon
the fact that the end WAS near was apparent
to all who were present. 1t was, considering
its record, highly proper that tine club should
be disastrously defeated in its closing game,
and the players seemed to realize it and
acted accordingly. The Kansas City men, on
the other hand, played an excellent game and
won easily. as the appended score will show.
Only seven innings were played, out there
was no kicking by spectators because the
the game was not completed. Everybody
seemed satisfied that they had seen enough,
and the death-bed scenes were not heartrend-
ing. The following is the score:

and in the course of an article says: "a de-
feat of the most decisive character was in
fiicted upon the Thistle and II has now been
pretty clearly demonstrat that the type of
yachts built on the American side are much
swifter than those of Great Britain"
The Daily News concludes generous arti-
Gle with these sentences: 1--WE adhere to our
opinion that England has to learn a lesson
from America In this branch of ship building
and we had better Sc. abont learning 1t at
once. The moral of our lve and thirty years
of fairly continuous disastrous defeats ought
not longer to be ignored"
The Times alone shows some i'll humor
and observes: at Is desirable for the inter-
ests of yachtsmen in both countries that the
cup should occasionally change hands and it
would certsinly be a greater triumph for
American yachtsmen to win it in English
waters than to retain 1t in their own"
The Standard shows a little ginger also
and concludes: "The Volunteer has beaten
the Thistle fairly and squarely on the latter's
merits rs she was when she sailed and would
probably continues to do so. But that the
result at all represents the Thistle's real form
we may be permitted to doubt, although at
present in the dark as to the cause of her sur
prising falling off from what she has shown
herself capable of performing"

Fire ON the Track.

Shortly after the E. d p. train left
Diamond Station, on the way to Eureka
yesterday, il was discovered that q lot OF
cedar wood on a fiat-oar next to the loco
motive was afire. A small stream Of water
from a hose attached TO the engine was
turned on, but il did no good. 1t ap-
pears that the fire was burning In the
very midst of the pile, and Conductor
Crowley seeing that there was danger
OF losing both car and wood, conceived
she idea Of running the locomotive and
oar with the burning wood up to the depot,
where there was plenty Of water to put
the fire out. Accordingly they were cut
loose from the balance OF the train and
run up to the water tank at the depot,
where the fire was extinguished and the
car and a part Of the wood saved. w. T..
Griffin. who was at the depot. said that as
the locomotive dashed up the track. with
the flaming macs behind 10, 1t presented
one of the most magnificent sights he
ever beheld. The locomotive was taken
back to the valley and returned with the
passenger coaches, about an hour and o
half late on account OF the fire.

A Boat Episode.

One OF the best things that occurred at
Palissde on Sunday was when some young
men, four in number, got into q boat, and
not having the oars belonging TO it, tried
to steer IL with four-inch battens. They
were all excellent ~ boatmen, the one
rowing against the other, and turning
the boat around In a circle. Occasionally
they would get close to the bank Of the
river and propel the boat by setting one
end of their battens in the mud. In this
way they steered along until they
got under the bridge, from which q rope
was suspended. One of the young men
caught hold OF the rope, and drew himself
up to see if 1t would hold his weight.
when the other fellows shot the boat out
from under him, and left him dangling in
the air for four or five minutes, with his
legs bent and feet touching the water. II
was comical thing TO see the young man
bobbing and wriggling to keep his legs
out of the river, but if his companions had
not brought that boat back and relieved
him from his unpleasant situation he
swore that he would have dropped, over
turned the boat and ducked them all in
the river.

Jack Howell, sent from Washoe county
for four years for burglary, in breaking
into a preachers house and stealing the
clergymsn's pants and shoes, was par
doned on the application Of Farmer
Sweeney. Mr.. Sweeney, in his plea for
the release of the prisoner, said he thought
that any man who would steal Q pair Of
pants from a Reno preacher should, under
less e~xtenusting circumstances. be trans
ported for life, but in this case Howell
was very drunk, which was evidenced BY
the fact that he put the pants and shoes
on and sat down in q saloon with his feet
on q table. The fact Of the theft being
made known by the clergyman search was
made for the thief, and the officers seeing
Howell had on q pair Of pants and shoes
evidently never made for him arrested
him, and the articles were identified as
the preachers property.
"Howell is a good man when he's
sober" pleaded Farmer Sweeney, "and If
he ia pardoned I'll give him work for two
years and give bonds that hereafter he'll
stand without hitchtng." When it is re-
lated that Farmer Sweeney is Q thorough
horse Jockey, the force of the last word
in the above plea will become wildly apar-
emit.
Farmer Sweeney concluded his plea by
saying: besides, gentlemen of the
Board, no man under the influence OF
Reno whisky should be punished for steal
ing" This last obervation evidently
bad great weight with the Board, and
Howell is now q free man.-Virginia
Chronicle.

On Sunday last, by mysterious means,
some clothes that had been hung on q
line at the rear of ]. V.B. Perry's residence
by neighbors took fire and burned up. II

by children, or that some one must have
thrown a lighted cigar or cigarette away,

sade.
AT Palisade, on Sunday last, Tom Dale
and Max Peters procured fishing poles,
hooks, lines and baskets, and went up
stream along the bank of the Humboldt
river to fish for trout. Max, with q
basket on each arm, was prepared to
capture myriads of the fnny tribe. Dale
caught 6 number Of very diminutive
minnows, which, as bait is enticing to the
bigger fish, but they were too wary for
these would-be anglers. They not wish
ing to appear green in the piscatorial art
picked up q fish that had lain dry on the
river bank for several days, and pretend
ing that they had come by 1t honestly, put
il into one OF the baskets. They soon put
up their tackle, and repaired to Tom
JEWELS store and saloon, where Max,
with q flourish of trumpets, Dragged Of
his qualifications as q fisherman. Joe
Ravell, being at his elbow, conceived the
idea of playing q joke on the boys; so
drawing an old form Of q warrant that had
been fixed up and signed by John I.
Baker three months ago from his pocket, he
approached Peters and told him that he had
violated the game laws by fishing on Sun
day, and that he must consider himself
under arrest. Max, with eyes moist from
sorrow, and big tears rolling down his
cheeks, implored the Constable not to ar
rest him. Ravell was memorable, but
finally compromised with Peters by per-
hitting him to give bonds for his appear
ance before Justice Sanders, Of Eureka.
Peters was inconsolable, and could
not be persuaded that q vile joke had been
played on him until some time after il &C.
Cured. Dale was sp~prehensive that he
would be arrested, and bought Ravell off
with very smooth promises, but
shortly afterward tumbled to the
game that had been played on
him, and determined to get even
by playing the stale fish on some one else.
Sam Longley happened along In the nick Of
time, and Dale deity washed the fish in q
basket OF water, and, with q great deal of
ceremony, presented it to him. Longley, |
who was overwhelmed with Dale's kindness, |
and with his heart overlooking
with appreciation Of the gift,
treated every man in the house.
The fish was carefully wrapped in
paper. and when Sam, homeward bound. |
got aboard the train, he proudly exhibit
ted 1t to his friends; but up to the
time of his arrival OF Eureka he
could not account for the reason
that every man to whom he exhibited
that beautiful fresh trout" hid oil
laugh as he stuffed his handkerchief under
his nose, and thanked Sam for an invita-
ton TO breakfast with him on the follow
ing morning,

Flowers OH the Humboldt.

II anybody thinks there are no flowers
on the banks of the Humboldt, they are
mistaken. Our reporter. while strolling
with some friends near Msggie's Bower,
at Palissde, saw wild rose bushes out OF
number. He also saw q pretty Jersey
lily, which he would have plucked If it
had been possible to do SO. 1t happened,
however, that there was a big stream of
water and o lot of loose rocks in the way,
and he therefore concluded that he would
leave the flower for same one else to pluck.
